If you are in Aspen/Snowmass for a One Week Training Course you could plan for the following:

Monday: Training 9:30 am, then relax for a drink and a bite at the Red Onion, or Element 47 for dinner after a full day on the slopes

Tuesday: Training 9:30 am, then hit the Aspen Brewing Company and knock back a few cold ones…

Wednesday: No Training Today, so take a dip in the natural hot springs at nearby Glenwood Springs, take a guided Snowshoe Trek or a Krabloonik Dog Sled Adventure. Later, stop by Little Annie’s for a lite bite or a dinner, Finbarr’s Irish Pub for a pint, or board a private SnowCat for a fondue dinner atop Aspen Mountain.

Thursday: Training 9:30 am, then stop by the Woody Creek Tavern for an icy margarita, or for a more mellow evening after a day on the slopes, head to Booksellers and Pyramid Bistro.

Friday: Training 9:30 am, grab a hot pizza pie at Up 4 Pizza, then head over to Ullr Nights for some night time tubing, live music, s’mores and hot chocolate.

Saturday: Start your day off with some Yoga on the Mountain, then some shopping downtown Aspen. Be sure to swing by the 39 degree bar at the Sky Hotel and Zane’s Tavern to round off the day.

Sunday: Why not spend the day shopping Aspen…try some budget shopping at Suzy’s Consignment in Aspen, followed by some dinner at Mezzaluna, then shoot some pool at Aspen Billiards.

If you choose to stay on for another week…

Monday: Training 9:30 am, then head out for a Snowcat Dining Excursion at Lyn Britt Cabin, or hit Trecento Quindici DeCanto for some dinner fare.

Tuesday: Training 9:30 am, maybe just relax after a long day of skiing and catch a flick at one of the many movie theaters in the Aspen area, then swing by Justice Snow’s for some grub and beverages.

Wednesday: Exam Day 9:30 am, later swing by J-Bar at the Hotel Jerome, for some relaxation at one of Aspen’s most Historical Spots, then check out the Caribou Club, America’s number-one private club.

Thursday: Exam Day 9:30 am, then head over to Escobar, a spot to unwind in a lounge vibe.

Friday: Exam Day 9:30 am, followed by Jimmy’s, a spot for live music (blues/swing music on Friday nights).
